Professional Rowdies.

Why is it that Wilmington is still dis
graced by the presence of the professional
puglists who nightly exhibit themselves at
the Grand Central Theatre.
According to Slate law pugiism is illegal
in Delaware.
Why does not the mayor suppress these ex.
hibltions aud drive Gabig and LeBlanche
out of the city Is it pretended that their ac-
tions do not bring them under the require
ments of the enactment. To suppose so is
ridiculous. These men do not indulge in
this work for nothing. Their payment must
must of curse come from the gate money,
that is to say the entrance fee paid by patrons
who go to see the matches.
The exhibitions are a disgrace to Viii
mipgton and should be st opped instanter ont
more thing should be done by the police au
thorities and that is the immediate closing
up of the Grand Central Theatre. The
place is public pest and disgrace to Will
mingtou-a sufficient cause for the Mayor
taking the matter peremptorily in hand.
The Wilmingtonian., 1887-11-19

Foster under the section (and the mayor
says he did not) even in this csse the muni-
cipality is not liable because the mayor act
ed ultra girsS.
Dillon on municipal corporation" says
the appointment of person to city office
by mayor under law which requires con-
firmation by the councilFgives the appointee
no right to the office without such conirma-
ton by the prope and legal Getty Council.
No principle of the law relating to munici-
pal corporation is more firmly established
than that those who deal with their agents
or officers must at their peril takeof notice
the limits of the powers both of the munici-
rality aud Of those who assume to act as its
agents and officers. A municipal corpora
tion cannot be held liable for the unauthor-
lied acts of its agents although done oficii
colore without some corporate act ofnotifica-
zion or co-option.
The whole case is one of a most unsornpu-
lous assumption on the part of Foster and
his equally oondemnable imposition upon
the trust confided in him. negatively by
Mayor Rhoads. OF course the city solicitor
could do nothing else than appeal a case
which so plainly fiouts the clear meaning of
the city ordinances.

No Pity for Anarchists.

1t is wonder that the people of this
country have not extended sympathy of any
kind whatever when Herr Most, of New
York, the blatant unhanged frisad of the
Chicago anarchists, made 1.-THE following
speech the day after the hanging of the four
Chicago prisoners:
''Fellow Slaves: The services over the
death of our comrades, which we're to have
been held tonight, were stopped by the po-
lice hounds. Oh, beware, you scoundrels |!

for meetings will be given in secret. The

pressed our meaning openly and gave our

The Arc Lights.

What pity it is that the authorities can
not find themselves i'll a position to erect arc
lights along Market Street.
We predictthat during the coming holiday
season were there good electric illumi nation
along our chef business avenue the $100, 900
of ''money spending" which assuredly
will go into the hands Of Philadelphia store-
keepers, Wauamaker, Yates, Reed, Straw,
bridge & Clothier and others, would have
been spent am ,ng our own merchants on
Market Street instead Of being carr led up to
Philadelphia in the pockets of Wilmington
ians to be spent there.
The reason of the loss of all that money
uring the next two months is just this that
our street are dark. People wont go out
shopping in the dark. And who can blame
them Dark stores and dark streets are
gradually driving all the retail trade out oI
Wilmington.

The Hospital Enterprise.

The necessity for Hospital in this city
has been apparent for years and its absence
has been severe reflection upon municipa!
management.
There is probably no other city of the size
ofWilmington in this country that's without
organized resources for the care and relief OF
the INDECENT sick and injured.
A stranger or poor person sick or injured
il wheeled to the Aims House as there is no
other relief offered. This ought not SO to be
and Mrs. Austin Harrington and her cola
borers have embarked in one of the most ne
oessitous and charitable enterprises ever
brought to theattentiou of this community
We are persuaded from our knowledge OF
the wide spread feeling ofhumanity characs'
eristic of this people, that the appeal now
being made in behalf of sickness and suffer-
ing will not be made in vain.
This enterprise has for its corner stone tne
noblest impulses of the heart and there Is
nat a man. woman or child in the entire CITY
hut what will encourage this work according
to the measure of their financial ability.
This work, further~ise,is in the hands, OIL

Let II Children Play.

Children with active minds should not be
sent to school as early as those of slower
mental growth. Let them romp and play
until they have attained the age of eight or
ten years, without learning letter. if need
be. They will be none the worse for it and,
whea they do begin, will progress more rap
idly than those who began three or four
years before. There are those who will, per
haps, take exceptions to this, but to the fact
Of early-begun and long continued school
average American can justly be attributed.
Health first; let mental attainments follow
as they naturally will. 1t is not to be sup
posed that during this period the child is to
be altogether free of training of any kind. A
sy stem of home discipline should go On dur
ing this time that will prove invaluable to
the child in after life When tired of play,

Sorry For 1t.

We regret to see that the Registration |
Commission has acted in such short-sighted
manner as to appoint two Democrats instead
of one of each party to re-register the voters
of the city.
This is not straight. 1t dos not inspire
reform Democrats, iu other words, squa' {
Jeffersonian Democrats, who think that all
American citizens, Republican as well as
those of our party should be dealt honestly
with, with the idea that the Registration
Commission intends doing what is openly
So rely mad thoroughly right with all
citizens.
We are sorry for it. This act, at the iu-
ception of our reform work, hanoicaps the
Democratic party III WILMINGTON with sns-
picion af wrong-doing.
What refurm Democrats desire, first and
above every other point it that no shadow OF
taint of unfairness shall rest npon u.s. We
desire the goodwill and political esteem Of
| our RepuDlioan ielloW-cit'Aehs as ihucn as
that is possible between opposed parties.
This suspicious boss-work will properly
cause Republicans to look with sinister gaz'
upon us. How can thegczsdiV Democrats
with any ingenuousness or honesty when ou
managers make no effort whatever to fret
themselves from the appearance of evil.
There is no genuine pleasure in afiliatior
with a party that persistently plays this ev
erlasting snap-adyantage. game; that decline
to allow opponents, who are entitled to eqna
rights on the premises referred to. the initia
opportunity of choosing equal weapons.
The Registration committee has committe'
a grave error which all honest citizens must
regret.
